'Why should I care what other people think of me? I am who I am. And who I wanna be.'


















- Avril Lavigne


I just keep slipping,
Slipping from the world tonight,
Baby I just keep wishing,
Hopefully you’ll figure out what’s right.

I want you to come running,
Because you’re so stunning,
And you’re the one for me,
So come and see

You’re the reason I smile,
The reason I laugh,
Sometimes the reason I cry,
But also the reason I live.

In my final moments,
I hope you will notice,
That I’m the one for you,
And without me you’ll be blue

So help me understand,
What it’s like to feel grand,
And smile with me, my baby,
Ooh, help me baby

I know we could have been,
The whole world we could have seen,
But now I just want to know
Will you be forever solo?

You don’t have to be,
Even if you love me,
You can find someone to see,
Even though it’s raining on me

I just keep slipping,
Slipping from the world tonight,
Baby I just keep wishing,
Hopefully you’ll figure out what’s right.

I want you to come running,
Because you’re so stunning,
And you’re the one for me,
So come and see

You’re the reason I smile,
The reason I laugh,
Sometimes the reason I cry,
But also the reason I live.

I wanted to be the one,
Who tamed the boy in black,
But now I can’t do that,
So please just love me like that

You were the reason I smiled,
The reason I laughed,
Sometimes the reason I cried,
But also the reason that I lived.

My friend died with a dream that her dream boy would go to her and love her. He never did and thats the inspiration for my song...
